Occassionally I go through bouts of insomnia. By Day 10 I'm a zombie-like creature minus the good looks and coordination. Here is my middle of the night, can't sleep forray into songwriting - a Follow Friday rap is soon to follow. Please sing to the theme song from Spiderman*
Ativan, Ativan
Makes me sleep
When I can’t
Lay in bed, half a pill
Taking more would make me ill
Look out
Here comes the Ativan
Is it strong
Listen You
Has me slurring with some drool
Does it work
You bet your ass
Sleep so sound I’m passing gas
Hey there
There goes the Ativan
In the chill of the night
Laying eyes open wide
Like a streak of light
When my sleep is denied
Ativan Ativan
Inducing sleep
To this restless heap
Small and white
Don’t judge by size
This tiny pill has a bite
Look out
Here comes the ativan…
*I don't actually take Ativan. Can you even imagine me on drugs?
** When I get more sleep, will start writing in full sentences again.

Sharon came to work at the YMC as the Yummy Mummy Club Coordinator after winning Canada's Yummiest Mummy Contest, a contest based on creativity and not on parenting skills (*whew* wipe beads of sweat from brow).
After a year and a half of coordinating the ins and outs of the YMC while managing the chaotic life of being a stay at home mom to two boys, and even though you will find at least one spelling or grammar error in every single one of her blogs, Sharon was promoted to Editor.
If you're looking for insight on how to balance motherhood and working while keeping your house immaculate, go visit Martha Stewart's blog. If you're every other mother on the planet struggling while trying to figure it out... welcome to The Inside Scoop.
